James Brown Rape Case Goes To The Supreme Court

A woman who claims she was raped by James Brown has
asked the Supreme Court to hear her case after it was
dismissed by lower courts because the statue of limitations
had run out. In her lawsuit, Jacque Hollander says James raped
her at gunpoint in 1988 when she worked as his publicist.
Jacque first sued James in 2000 after she developed a thyroid
condition doctors told her was caused by stress from the rape.
She is seeking $106 million in damages.
